Customer Reviews
Next stop on my Colorado BBQ adventures was Frank’s. Been trying to come for a while, the outside makes the place look closed or only for catering but there is a door on the side and a few tables inside to eat. Overall, I was not super impressed and actually upset. Nothing like spending good money on bad food. The service was amazing and I loved the old timey vibes, but the food just lacked in a lot of places for me. The pulled pork had a good flavor in some spots but was slightly dry and bland in others. Coleslaw was good, but the beans were not a good flavor at all, they actually made me gag a little, the potato salad is okay but has a heavy sour cream and onion flavor, very overpowering, needs a little dial back. Homemade bbq sauce was not bad, ketchup base for sure and a slight hit t
Don't let the location put you off. This place has amazing food for a great price. Their brisket and ribs were all-off-the- bone, melt -in-your-mouth delicious. If I could change one thing, I would have a mustard based potato salad. But who goes to bbq for potato salad? 100% will be back.
Visitor to Denver. Heard about this place from another hotel guest so I had to try it. Small little restaurant it’s little seating, mostly set up for takeout. Menu board had limited selection, made my order, and ate outside nearby and wow, the food was fantastic. Loved the meats and the coleslaw. I’ll be back next time I’m in town.
Stopped in today with my son after not having this place for close to 15 years and man it hasn’t missed a beat. The chopped bbq and potato salad were amazing. Can’t wait to come back again and try the brisket! Ran into my old homie Justin from high school who took over the family buisness, what a great guy and an amazing family!
Best BBQ in all of Colorado and comparable to the best I’ve had in Texas and in Georgia. Frank’s BBQ is champ status succulent, moist, and flavorful beyond words. First things first, Frank Jr. was down south hospitable and amicable, he just came across as a super good dude. I felt at home in an instant. The brisket was insanely well balanced, the marbling was perfection as was the level of smoke. Frank’s sauce is scientifically proven to produce tongue smiles and salivation upon contact with your taste buds. The sauce isn’t watery nor is it a thick goo, it’s texture is just right with precisely the correct amount of sweetness, saltiness, and tanginess. The ribs were fall off the bone tender yet had the exact amount of bite to engender the thought of tearing into a freshly smoked slab. This
